What the absolute fuck. Here I thought we were nice to each other, but this dude just crossed the line.
Me having sex with my ex will feel like an eternity compared to the time it will take me to ban him!

Enjoy that. Danes will be a different game though, they looked tired after 70mins today.
Surprised 3 out of 4 goals for the English lads were headers from crosses today. Just hope we can continue in that vein. Southgate got a tough choice for his front 3

I think you will take it - on neutral ground with 50/50 fans it would be a different story, but playing at Wembley with 50k people shouting at you is just on another level. Denmark does enjoy being the underdog though, so perhaps a small miracle can happen.
If someone told me we would be in a semi-final before it all started I would have laughed at them. What happened in the first game was horrible and losing to Belgium I pretty much counted us out, but here we are, haha. Will be very exciting though!

Yep now I've seen the replays you could easily understand if the Sterling penalty had been ruled out. The challenge on Kane however was an obvious penalty, no idea how that one wasn't given. Things worked themselves out then. My bias may even go as far to say that the Denmark free-kick that led to the goal was extremely soft, don't think it should have been given.

Heart: 3:0 England
Head: 2:1 Italy
Very happy either way, had 0 expectations on reaching the final, and we had some good luck on the way. So happy for the team, very young and ego free. Southgate great guy too.

I'm always torn when it comes to the national team.
I'm English and have nothing against the players, but I absolutely despise the fanbase.
All this "2 World Wars and 1 World Cup" "10 German Bombers" nonsense, not to mention a good portion of them turn up at Goodison Park/Anfield each season singing 'feed the scousers' and 'Sign on sign on' etc.
While I don't go for the current 'Scouse not English' thing that's been doing the rounds, they really are a hard lot to root for.
Not to mention half my family are Irish and to top it off I drew Italy in the work sweepstakes.
Might have to just sit on the fence for this one

Yeah in the last games I went to (away end) I actually thought the whole environment was pretty depressing and pathetic at times, with so many die-hards just screaming abuse at fans, players, ref, whoever....constantly angry about everything haha. Kid and his dad next to me and the young one would stand up and 'join' in with it. Just seems like loads of braindead guys who need some outlet for their anger. Goodison park was always friendly and good natured though, but I was never behind the goal with the die hards. Wonder if it's just a loud minority spoiling it for the majority?
Yeah, I wonder who I will be rooting for tomorrow.....
